These include: ? Policy 14.0 on page 41 states that the City should "Maintain or improve the operation of the street system for pedestrians, bicycles, transit, and automobiles. " One of the Suggested Strategies to implement the Proposed Policy on page 41 of the study states that we should "Identify one-way streets that should be converted to two-way operation." Although neither of these street segments were recommended for conversion, the new library was not a consideration at the time and the segments analyzed were both longer than those contained in this action. .

No laws conflict with the proposed action. (f) The efficient use of the public way by the public. ? The proposed re-designations will have a positive effect on the use of the public way by the public, as motorists will have optional routes and more direct access to and from destinations within the converted area. (g) The use of abutting property. ? The land uses on either side of both streets will not be affected by this action.
